region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, RoW)
Overview: Global Smart Beacon Market
Digital transformation has become pivotal to an organization's future success. Like
never, today's customers are more digitalized and willing to use smart apps for lifestyle
management. As a result, companies are focusing on developing a customer-centric
strategy to enhance the customer experience. This has created the demand for smart
beacons across verticals, as these beacons are equipped to connect with the customer
more precisely by delivering more personalized content such as customized promotional
offers and other personalized information.
In 2012, Bluetooth SIG announced BLE features with version 4.0 of the Bluetooth
specification and commercialized with the launch of Apple's iBeacon in 2013. In 2015,
Google launched Eddystone, and the adoption of Eddystone has started to increase
because of its functionality. Eddystone is an open beacon format that offers three
payload types - Eddystone URL, Eddystone UID (unique ID), and Eddystone TLM
(telemetry information).
Google has launched two APIs (Nearby API and Proximity Beacon API) that help
Eddystone to gain more prominence. But in October 2018, Google announced that
Android will discontinue support for Nearby Notifications from December 6th, 2018, due
to misuse of the service resulting in irrelevant and spammy marketing messages being
delivered as notifications on Android phones. As a result, many considered proximity
marketing is no longer viable, but the market continued to grow due to consumer
willingness to download branded app promoted by the company to its product or service.
